Book 1: Sabotage Operation


Sabotage Operation is an intense, suspenseful novel that will have you on the edge of your seat, trying to figure out who is behind, targeting Teresa Rodriguez and her thoroughbred racing stable. Teresa suspects a former employee, and for her safety and her horses ‘, she turns to South Beach Security. They send Matt Perez, a security expert and K-9 handler, who is not just determined but relentless in his pursuit of who is behind targeting Teresa. As Matt delves into the investigation, the stakes rise, and it’s a good thing that Teresa has Matt and his K-9, named Butter, for protection before things get out of hand. 

I was definitely captivated by this book, especially with such an action-packed plot and lovable characters with perfect chemistry. Caridad kept me guessing about who was behind everything while also keeping me intrigued with the evolving relationship between Teresa and Matt. Matt had to work out some things about how he saw Teresa at first, thinking she was a ‘rich type’ girl, but after he got to know her, he realized she was a hardworking, independent woman who was doing something she loved. I loved reading the parts of both characters in action when it came to their jobs.

The one who truly stole my heart in the book was Matt’s K-9, Butter. Her loyalty to her handler and doing her job was a delightful layer to the story. I’m a sucker for animals in books, and Butter was definitely a star in Sabotage Operation. 

I give this book five stars and look forward to reading more from this series. If you are looking for an action-packed, intense romantic suspense story with some great characters, including an adorable K-9 named Butter, then check out this book. 

You may also get a little hungry while reading this book. I know I was hungry whenever the characters mentioned the foods they were cooking and eating. =)

Owner/Reviewer at A Book Lovin' Mama's Blog
I guess I should type a bio here. I'm FranJessca, or Fran for short. I'm the owner/reviewer behind A Book Lovin' Mama's Blog. I've been reading and reviewing books on my blog since leaving the Navy in 2011, and I will keep doing it as long as possible. My favorite genres will always be Romance & Fantasy, and I read every subgenre underneath those two genres. (Sorry, not a fan of nonfiction, so don't try to convince me to read it.)
My obsession with reading started over 30+ years ago when I went to my first Scholastic Book Fair and found R.L. Stine's Fear Street series. Later, I came across Anne Rice's novels at my public library when I was fourteen when my obsession with vampires started. I was the girl who preferred to be a vampire over a princess any day. My husband says I would leave him a heartbeat for a vampire that looked like Spike or Angel (from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) or Damon Salvatore from The Vampire Diaries. (It's true, though, and he's accepted it.)
